Description
What problem will this feature address?
Can not backup to FTP, SFTP, Google Drive other storage solutions.
Describe the solution you'd like
Add support for other destination types like Google Drive, One Drive, FTP, SFTP etc.
Describe alternatives you've considered
During backup destination creation, we can select destination types and their credentials accordingly. This can later be used in upload phase of backup process. Following can be used for uploading the data:
- rclone - supports a lot of destination. destination configuration can be given as argument. Using rclone will probably be easiest and fastest to add support for many providers.
- https://github.com/duna-oss/flystorage - common api for services. adapter based.
- Independent libraries - will require more effort but provides granular control over each api.
